Well, the courier service that I used for the last step of our domestic journey called today. The Chinese Embassy approved all our docs and we will have them back tomorrow!!!! We are very excited! This means we do not have to get new physicals or any other paperwork done, thats it!
Now we just ship the packet to the adoption agency with our passport photos, some family photos, and the next agency fee. They will review the documents and make sure they are all in order, and then bind them in a nice little portfolio and send them off to China. We basically have a few events after that, the next one being after it gets to China, which is called the "LID", the log in date, which just confirms that it is officially in China and in the line to get a child. This is the point where we just sit and literally wait for an undefined amount of time.
A side note here. I forgot to attach the actual application form for the Chinese Embassy that explained what the paperwork was, and who it was from etc etc. Well, I panicked and called the courier service back and the lady said that she noticed it was missing and filled one out for us, WOW! I literally told her "I love you" on the phone. Afterwards I went to Edible Arrangements and sent her a box of chocolate covered strawberries from us saying thanks. She called me back about an hour and a half later to thank me for them, lol. Edible Arrangements works FAST to get them delivered within an hour. If anyone is looking for a GREAT courier service in DC to do this, the website is and they were fantastic. Now we are just waiting for the docs to arrive tomorrow so we can put the rest of the things in and FedEx it off on Saturday to the agency.
